This video explains the process of 3D-printing super detailed items for miniature landscapes, such as dioramas or Model Railroad / Railway / Eisenbahn. ItΒ΄s a response to the many questions following my previous video, where I printed and built kits of residential buildings in H0-scale.

good vid merry chrismas thanks lee
Thank you for this fantastic coverage of the many questions, the process, what to expect and how to circumvent issues. It does clear up a lot. Wonderful. Happy December season π π π
just one question. do they also have models in N Scale? or just H0 scale?
You are right that downscaling models often does not work, but there is no problem to upscale a model from for example N scale to HO. Also adding supports is not that complicated after you done it a few times, practice makes perfect as they say. Except that you made a great job of explaining the process.
As usual, Martin, a very thorough tutorial that will be helpful to many people. Cheers from Wisconsin!
I have been working on designing/creating 3D models for railways/railroads. My models are drawn in 1/35th, but specifically scaled down with individual models in HO/OO and O Gauge respectfully. The problem in chasing detail, I have 4 fire buckets in HO complete with handles that brake if you press to hard with the paint brush. Some of my pieces only successfully print on a certain machine, using a certain resin, at a certain temperature. In developing eally fine-scale 3D models, it will be impossible for me to actualy put many of them on the market-place for download. Add to that I mix resins to produce different properties.
No no no! 3D printing is not as easy as printing something on paper. Just the fact that so many models out there especially for more realistic stuff don't even have supports and you have that supports. You must not be remembering how much work it was to just learn how to tune your printer settings. When you change resins you have to change your settings. And I don't have print failures when I print text on paper. Oh and all the crap you have to do with protective gear and ventilation and washing and curing the models, when I print stuff on paper I print grab it and done. I'm pretty disappointed that you say 3D printing is as easy as printing something on paper.
Thank you so much, this was a huge help, I really appreciate your step by step Tutorial because I am new to all of this
Thanx for a good, easy to understand video. How small scale is it possible to print? And does 3D printing work for making figures too?
Great Video, can you make a video about diffrent 3D printers some kind of test and recommendation wich size and brand
Thanks Martin and merry Christmas to you and your family. π π»πβοΈ
After printing, what do you have to do for cleaning the printer?
Cheers from Switzerland π¨π ππ»ββοΈ
While I appreciate you making videos on model railways. I, like many others do not have and probably never will have a 3D printer. Please make some more railway videos!
Have a Merry Christmas!
Awesome! I am about to buy my first printer and really appreciate your experience and advice! Question: Didn't you have a Photon Ultra as one of your earlier 3D printers? If so, why did you switch to the Anycubic Photon Mono X2?
Hi, I was wundering if downscaling is not possible from ho to n?
What about your ventilation setup? I see a lot of info about resin being pretty nasty and that good ventilation is essential, but what is 'good'?
